Notes

"Frampton Dowling was the original ancestor of the large family
that originated in Tyrone County, Ireland. He landed there on
August 1, 1643 on board Captain Samuel Matthew's ship. The name
of the ship is presently unknown, as well as any other family
members that Frampton may have been traveling with. He did have
a son, Robert, but it is unknown if this Robert was born in
Ireland or in the United States. Robert's son, Robert, who was
born about 1730 is often mistaken to be the son of Frampton,
however at the time of his birth Frampton would have been close
to 100 years in age, making it improbable that he was the
father.

Notes

Edmond owned 500 acres in 9th district and over 200 acres in
10th district Sevier County, TN. He settled in the NE part of
the county, between Knoxville & Sevierville on Boyd's Creek
close to Hwy 441, SE of Knoxville. In 1992, Mr. Ray Hodges of
Knoxville, TN has the original Family Bible.

A lawsuit in 1851 had to do with settlement estate of Edmond -
first execs were David McCroskey and Edmund Hodges, Jr. resigned
and court appointed Samuel Pickens - his son William C. Pickens
bought several shares and some of land rented to him by Samuel
Pickens.
